Summary: "Med Diet"
If you're a busy mom, I don't think this book is for you. The recipes are okay, however, they are time consuming to prepare. I wouldn't recommend this book for someone on the go. It's so important to manage your weight through diet and exercise,however, some times you need a little help. Why buy a book that can't facilitate that process. I just didn't find it cost effective or time sensitive. While there were great recipes, I personally found it to be a bit of a headache preparation wise.

Summary: "Updated and improved from his previous book"
This is an updated and improved version of his previous book on the same subject. A lot more recipes from this diet. It does not contain any new information on the "what" and the "why" of the Mediterranean Diet, but it has lots of recipes to make the diet more varied and interesting.

Summary: "Awesome Recipes In This Book!"
I like to eat a Mediterranean diet anyway, for health reasons... but I ordered this book and I can tell you that the recipes in this book are awesome! They are all Mediterranean recipes with a sort of Miami twist on them which make them a little more hip I suppose for people to try. I have tried many of them and couldn't be happier that I bought this book! Eat healthy and buy this book, you won't be sorry! It came on time and it was also in great shape!

Summary: "Recipes are really, really good"
I bought this book for the diet information but it was the recipes that really made this book a keeper for me. The food plan seems really healthy and sustainable for the long haul. I can diet but I can't live without a variety of fruits! I have read so many diet/health/food plan books over the years. I'm really impressed by this one.
